The Ellensburg Community Grant Program offers a water quality-focused grant to support community-based projects aimed at improving or protecting surface water quality. Funded by the Stormwater Utility, this grant aligns with the broader mission of fostering a healthy environment where water quality sustains diverse organisms and safeguards public health. The program provides funding for community groups to engage in outreach, education, assessments, planning, implementation, prevention, and control initiatives specifically targeting the city's surface water. The grant targets eligible volunteer groups, including youth, seniors, non-profit organizations, and educational organizations. While business and governmental partners are encouraged to participate, they cannot be the primary applicants. The overarching impact goal is to improve stormwater quality within Ellensburg city limits. Projects are expected to demonstrate tangible improvements in surface water quality, educate a significant and diverse portion of Ellensburg's population about water quality and protective actions, and promote best practices to reduce or eliminate adverse impacts on water quality. The program prioritizes projects that demonstrably improve surface water quality, educate residents on water quality and actions to protect it, and teach best practices to minimize water quality impacts. Examples of eligible projects include public outreach and education, yard care initiatives, and litter pickup, all aimed at benefiting stormwater quality within the city. Projects must be situated within city limits, and if on publicly owned property, an agreement addressing various terms, including the use of minors as volunteers and hold harmless clauses, will be required. A total of $10,000 is available for this grant cycle. Expected outcomes include a more informed community regarding water quality issues, a reduction in pollutants impacting surface waters, and a greater adoption of environmentally sound practices. The program’s theory of change is that by empowering and funding community groups to engage in direct action and education, Ellensburg can achieve measurable improvements in its surface water quality, thereby enhancing ecological health and public well-being. Grant funds explicitly prohibit projects that involve or promote the use of alcohol.

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to support collaborative, transdisciplinary, translational research projects which advance exceptionally promising, chemically complex botanical and other natural products relevant to dietary supplements towards highly informative clinical trials of their effects on quantitative, objective measures of human resilience. Dynamic, synergistic interactions among the range of experts required to ensure rigor in all aspects of this research will be supported by a multi-PD/PI team collaborating on a single set of integrated specific aims, culminating in data on optimal parameters for a future proposed clinical efficacy trial, as well as the development and validation of other critical knowledge and methods for interpretation of such a trial, such as clinical assessment of the engagement of an outcome-relevant target. Enhancing workforce and institutional capacity to conduct future rigorous, transdisciplinary research on chemically complex natural products must be built into the plans for research and for enhancing diverse perspectives. Achievement of the RM1 specific aims is expected to provide a strong foundation for a future highly informative clinical efficacy trial of the effects on resilience of a chemically complex natural product.This NOFO is one component of the Consortium Advancing Research on Botanicals and Other Natural Products (CARBON) Program. Other components of this Program include RFA-AT-24-008, Leveraging Data at Scale to Understand Natural Product Impacts on Whole Person Health (R01) and RFA-AT-24-007, Limited Competition: Research Resource for Natural Product Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Data (R24).

The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to support research that 1) defines associations between variations in human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genetic regions and immune-mediated diseases, 2) elucidates mechanisms underlying these associations with the goal of advancing therapeutic opportunities, and/or 3) validates association data in order to improve the predictive power of clinical disease screening.

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), theNCI Worta McCaskill-Stevens Career Development Award for Community Oncology and Prevention Research (K12). The NOFO will invite applications for institutional research career development programs to support the training of clinical scientists in community cancer prevention, intervention, and treatment research. Special emphasis is placed on training of clinical scientists whose career goal is to meet the needs of underserved or underrepresent ed communities for access to clinical care and participation in clinical research. The NOFO will allow the appointment ofScholars proposing to serve as the lead investigator of an independent community-based clinical trial; or proposing a separate ancillary study to an existing prevention, screening or control clinical trial; or proposing to gain research experience in a community-based clinical trial led by another investigator; or proposing to serve as leader of innovative clinical trial approaches that expand engagement of underserved or underrepresented communitiesin cancer clinical research, as part of their research and career development. This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive applications. The NOFO is expected to be published in April 2024 with an expected application due date in June 2024. TheNOFO will utilize theK12 activity code for Clinical Scientist Institutional Career Development Program Awards. Details of the planned NOFO are provided below.
